Infrastructure • Energy • Media • Environments

The Grierson Research Group studies the material, political, social and aesthetic dimensions of infrastructure, media, energy and environments, in diverse contexts. We are academics, researchers and practitioners across several ranks, disciplines, institutions and organizations.

Our modes of inquiry include scholarly research and publication, individual and collaborative study, public engagement and activism. We look. We listen. We read. We think. We talk. We learn. We teach. We strive for practices that are careful, responsible, egalitarian and generative.

We convene on unceded Indigenous lands in Tiohtiá:ke (Montreal). The Kanien’kehà:ka (Mohawk) of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy are recognized as the traditional custodians of these lands and waters.
